FAQs About Bridge Courses After SEE: What You Need to Know
After you sit for your SEE, you will have a long vacation waiting and this is literally the perfect time for you to join a bridge course. You may have heard of it from your friends, and family or even seen your seniors do it when they were at the same junction in their education journey. It is something many Nepali students choose to do because of how helpful it can be when you start your higher secondary education. So, to help you learn the intricacies of this topic, here are some of the commonly asked questions from the students:
What Exactly Is a Bridge Course, and Why Should I Consider One?
All in all, a bridge course is a very short program that you have a choice to do after you graduate from the 10th grade. Going into grade 11 after SEE usually presents a huge gap that can bring forth many challenges and this causes many of the students to face certain difficulties for the students to progress. So, the bridge course comes in basically to ‘bridge’ the gap between the levels of Grade 10 and Grade 11 so that you can make a smoother transition into the 11th grade. You will definitely be able to strongly enhance your foundation skills in many different subjects of science and management than the students who did not take this course, essentially helping you get into some of the more competitive schools in the city.
Who Should Take a Bridge Course?
Although it all does boil down to your choice, we strongly recommend everyone who has recently just completed their SEE to take up the bridge course because the advantages you will have over the students who have not taken this course are greater. You will definitely have a head start no matter what stream you will be joining and it can be useful to help you get more adjusted and comfortable when the more intense parts of Grade 11 and 12 come by.
How Long Do Bridge Courses Usually Last?
Most bridge courses are 4 to 8 weeks long, depending on the institution. They usually start soon after the SEE results are out and wrap up right before the new academic session. The schedules are pretty flexible, so you can still enjoy some downtime while prepping for the next big step.
What Subjects Are Covered in a Bridge Course?
The subjects will depend on the stream you’re planning to choose. If you’re going for science, expect to cover math, physics, chemistry, and biology. For management, it’ll be more about accountancy, economics, and mathematics. Regardless of the stream, English language skills are almost always included, because let’s face it—English is important no matter what you’re studying!
Do All Colleges Require a Bridge Course for Admission?
Nope, bridge courses aren’t a must for admission. However, some competitive schools or colleges may prefer or recommend that students complete one. It shows you’re serious about your studies and could give you a bit of an edge in the admission process.
